No new content but rather some continued tweaks behind the scenes. There is a much improved shopping UI now, as well as balance changes for combat. Some of my thoughts on this below:

0.0.19 Patch Notes:

• All shops have been converted to a new UI.
• Combat has received sweeping balance changes. TL;DR: Attack Power has been reduced for many powers and monsters.
• Shields now grant immunity to Critical Hits from weapon attacks. Note that abilities that target Physical Resistance rather than Evasion circumvent this!

A lot of you have (correctly) been saying that combat was overly punishing. That’s partly because the Foothills were designed for levels 2-4, rather than 1-3 (they’re meant to be the second area, but the first area in the plot needed more work first), and partly inherent to the way I had balanced Attack Power. Attack Power is, basically, a percentage scaling on your weapon’s base damage that an attack applies, so something like the Thief’s “Dirty Trick” power that grants +50 Attack Power really means your hitting for 150% of your basic attack’s damage. The numbers we had were probably okay if the powers they were applied to were only used by the PC… but enemies also have access to several player powers, and of course, their powers were balanced based on what the player had.

Making powers universal, so that friend or foe or player could use them is still a great idea, but it was clearly overwhelming when the enemy usually has the numerical advantage. We were getting a lot of reports of players being dumpstered in the first turn or two of combat, before kitty RNG would decide to heal — if she even had the chance. So the Attack Power numbers have been scaled back for everybody, player and enemy alike; this should result in slightly longer combats, but ones that avoid one side or the other immediately being overwhelmed. Let us know how the balance changes strike you either in the comments below or on the forum.

Also speaking of things to do, make sure if you’re supporting either CoC2 or TiTS, you take a look and make sure Patreon’s charged you this month! They moved their banking to the UK which triggered a lot of fraud stoppages, and they also appear to have stopped taking pre-paid cards as well. I’m sure glad they didn’t let us know in advance about these changes; what a great service.

Sorry we’ve been away for a little bit, but CoC2 is back with some more content this weekend! We’ve got our next mob in the game: Arona the orc futazon, accompanied by a gang of her tribeswomen all looking for some booty to pillage. Along with them, you’ll be able to fight alongside a preview version of the next companion, Brint.

0.0.18 Patch Notes:

• Arona and the Orc Warband have been added to the Foothills. You must be at least Level 3 to encounter them at the moment, and whenever you engage in a fight with them, you’ll be automatically joined by our next companion Brint the Minotaur (written by Wsan). Brint is a much-needed beefyboi for this encounter, and when he’s fully implemented, he should make low-level questing much easier. Note that there is a reverse-gangbang scene you can’t currently access until some TF effects are added in to increase Libido or cum volume.
• A critical bug wherein Armor was rendered effectively useless has been squashed. Whoops.
• You can flee from combat now!
• Cleave has been changed to only do 100% damage/hit, rather than 130% with each hit. Arona and Brint both have Cleave and oh boy was that messy when they started using it against each other.
• Mobile browsers should no longer cut off at the top (reminder that we only officially support Chrome and Firefox. Use other things at own risk.)

While you guys chew on this stuff, Drake and DCL are going back into the UI mines for the Journal (I think the questlog is the next thing, specifically) and I’m writing the orc dungeon that Arona will eventually lead off to before you can recruit her.

As a side note, for those of you struggling with the new fight (it’s a hard one!), keep an eye on the little colored gems in the top-right of each character’s card. That represents Threat, and the redder it is, the more likely a target is to be attacked. And that goes for your side and the enemy, so try and focus fire with your companions! Arona’s a tank, not a damage-dealer, so consider taking down her comrades before moving on to her. That’s worked for me, anyway!
